Didn't Mattel propose a Kulatek figure in the 200x line that never made it to final production? Other than the Staction figures, there were no known prototypes for 200x but if the Kulatek represents one of those, it would be cool to have represented. However, looks like I'm on my own here! LOL.

I am glad Evilseed did so well, I really hope we see his 200X version over the Filmation one - or at the very least a mixture with different heads etc.

MYP Evil-Seed is LONG overdue. The design works much better within the Classics line. If they do include a Filmation head, I hope it's packed at the very bottom of the card so we can have a carded Evil-Seed displayed in his MYP style.

I'd personally want any of the characters in the list over Tuvar and Baddrah. Not sure why so many folks are keen on getting the two halves of Two Bad as figures. I'd rather just have a straight-up Two Bad figure.

They did show a sketch of it in 2005, at a con I think? Along with those unpainted prototypes of Clamp Champ, Snout Spout, Hordak & The Sorceress... a teaser of what was planned before the decision to nix the line in '04. In fact, I think they were trying to figure out a viable way of releasing them... and then came the staction line not too long after, if I'm not mixing things up.
So yeah, you could say the Kulatuk is long overdue! I know I voted him towards the top...

I think fans want all three, including Two Bad.

With Tuvar and Baddhra, you get two bad-ass bounty hunters or you could make the ultimate Two-Bad using Baddhra's 200X head (Tuvar might be masked and his unmasked head wasn't any different from his Vintage head) and both bounty hunter's varied weapon arsenal (Tuvar's cloak and net, Baddhra's staff, Tuvar's twin daggers).

Besides...fans do "former state" figures. Look at Keldor. We have a Kronis figure as a by product of Trap Jaw. There are fans who want Lightspinner and Karak Nul.

Me too. Think of how cool he'd look with/fighting Icer! I wonder if people think he wouldn't look as cool on a MOTUC buck?

Indeed! I don't really get it either. I guess I would be okay with them WAY down the line in 2020 or something. But there are so many more characters, especially in 200X that I'd rather see.

I'm also more interested in Masque than Huntara, but I'd like to see both make the cut.

I think the issue with Ceratus might be that people would fear he'd be Whiplash with a new head. Same reason Stingrad didn't even make the cut.

Just been thinking about the amount of slots vs how many high demanded characters remain that could feasibly be made over the space of the next two years. These are my thoughts. The following show in order the factions together rather than the possible order of monthly line-ups:

Not in this order obviously, but you get the idea. If we are to get all the fan demanded characters, and wrap up the line by the end of 2015, this is the amount of SKUs they'll need. It can be done if done correctly.

Bummed Huntara didn't come out in front. For those of you saying you need Masque because you have Shokoti...at least you have Shokoti! Huntara is a female character and therefore less likely to get some love from Matty. Masque was always going to be made - he's a male with minimal tooling required.

But again - this is probably about game-playing on the company's part. I suspect Huntara will get made...I just don't want to be waiting and wondering for another two or three years before it happens...the way I am with many of the She-Ra characters...

That's why i'm in no hurry to get him. Mattel will probably reuse the Beast Man body, all in white, with a new head. Not very exciting, imo, so i'm not surprised he came last.

I'm a little disappointed that the skeleton warriors were near the bottom. Those guys would be almost guaranteed to receive unique new sculpts, and would give Skeletor a proper army at last to match the Snake Men and the Evil Horde.

Wow that 2015 would have a hard time meeting the minimum number of sub holders I would bet.

Since I'm about 99% sure we won't be getting a 200X mini sub anytime soon, I'm hoping Scott remembers to give us ONE, yes ONE MYP/200X character (I'm not referring to an Eternian steed like Battle Lion) in 2014. MYP Evilseed is CLEARLY the most desired character from this era, so why not give us this figure in 2014?

Filmation received their own sub and now so has PoP. The upcoming 2014 offering already has two NA figures, one movie figure, and one mini-comic figure. It isn't too much to ask for our most requested MYP figure.

It's always quite interesting to look back on threads like these in light of new information.

If Evilseed doesn't show up somehow in 2015, I'll be surprised and a little disappointed.

We have a Huntara revealed and no Lord Masque - even though Lord Masque beat her in the poll.

The concept of having "previous incarnation" characters grows on me more and more because I love to display different eras in the MOTU mythos. It gives a fun sense of continuity, and it really enriches certain periods in the history of the narrative that may only have one or two representatives.

I joined the Org too late to participate in the poll . . . I probably would have voted Huntara (and also desperately hoped for a Lord Masque while doing so), and I would have pushed for King Miro and the Horde Wraiths especially - also Prahvus.

If your talking about the fan vote, that was done at SDCC last year and was open to fans who attended the MattyCollector panel. And Huntara won that vote.

2015 will be the year of 200x in Classics just as this year was the year of POP.
